Glittered Pumpkins

Here is a fall card I made for yesterdays color challenge on Splitcoaststampers. The colors I used were Stampin Up!'s 'Tangerine Tango, Chocolate Chip, Kiwi Kiss, and Very Vanilla'.

They come with the glitter already on them and I got the whole bag for only $1.00. The ribbon is from Michaels. The edges of the vanilla cardstock were sponged with 'Tangerine Tango' and 'More Mustard' ink from Stampin Up!.

Its not peak fall season yet, but my 'Autumn Blaze' maple is looking particularly lovely right now, so I'm hoping to capture that beauty on film before its gone.
